I found this forum not so long ago, I have a lacie ethernet disk 1tB (edminiv2), the disk is dead (heads against the platter dead) So i was searching on google, found this site, got interested....

So what i want to know is, is it possible to connect to circuit board to my router and attach a usb thumb drive to the lacieboard it and make it serve a website or files or something?

I read somewhere that you can install debian on it.. I have downloaded uboot, clunc, but i don't really know how to use them :/ (also i'm running on ubuntu 1304 but i'm only a few months into linux so..) Can someone help me set up these things?
I know that there is something like jtag too (8 pins to the xilingx) , but isnt that for flashing/talking/.. withe the various µcontrollers on the board?
